Jian bing is a popular Chinese breakfast that served at many street stalls. It's a a flour based crepe that's mixed with egg, crackers, spices, spring onion, chilli garlic oil and coriander. Here is a jian bing recipe to make it at home.
Ingredients
- 120g (about 1 cup) plain flour
- 60g (about 1/2 cup) rye flour
- chilli garlic sauce
- yellow soybean paste
- sesame seeds
- 4 eggs
- a handful of crackers
- 2 spring onions, sliced
- a small bunch of coriander, roughly chopped
- 1 head of lettuce, washed and leaves separated
- peanut oil for cooking
Directions
To make the batter, add the plain flour, rye flour, and a pinch of salt to a bowl along with 600ml (about 2.5 cups) of water. Whisk until mostly smooth; it's okay if there are a few small lumps. Set the batter aside.
- Place a large cast-iron pan over medium heat and lightly coat it with peanut oil using a paper towel to spread the oil evenly.
- Pour just enough batter into the pan to spread it thinly across the surface. Let it cook for about 1 minute. Then, crack an egg into the centre of the crepe and spread it over the entire surface. Sprinkle some spring onions and sesame seeds on top.
- Once the egg is set and you see some colour developing, carefully flip the crepe.
- On the flipped side, spread 1 tablespoon of yellow soybean paste and 1 tablespoon of chilli garlic sauce. Add the crackers, lettuce leaves, and coriander. Fold the crepe and cut it in half.
- Serve while still hot and fresh.
